Home Forums Discussions Problems Printing the encounter note

Seems to me that when you print the encounter note, it puts in the date it was printed and not the date of the actual note. Any way around this?

I just tried to print both ways
1. Selected patient from the pt list. right clicked , selected encounter note and it printed the date of the actual note
2. Selected the encounter note and hit PRINT PREVIEW and saved it as a TXT fie and printed it again and it printed the date of the encounter. I am using version 5.0.29
Both notes printed the actual date of the encounter

There is a button at the top of the encounter window, "Alter Date", which gives the option of changing the date of the note before signing it off. Once the note is signed off, the date can't be changed.

I am not sure if this is what everyone is talking about, but if I have a note I did on the 1st of October in my inbox that I left there for whatever, if I open it on a later date and try to save it, I always get the warning:

This is not today's date. Do you want to print it anyway? I say yes, and it prints on the day of the note, not today's date.

I think it's very slick.
